When it comes to furniture, appearance is only part of the story. What really defines quality is how a product performs once it’s in use — whether that’s a chair bearing weight day after day, a table that must resist impact, or storage units that need to remain stable and secure over time. At Pro QC, our inspectors and engineers help manufacturers and buyers validate that furniture doesn’t just look right — it functions safely, reliably, and in line with international standards. These tests are critical for protecting brands, ensuring compliance, and giving end users the confidence they expect.

Too often ISO 13485 audit reports are seen only as certification paperwork. In fact, they’re one of the best tools for understanding how a supplier actually manages quality. Read properly, a report shows where procedures hold up across shifts, how CAPA is handled, whether documentation is reliable, and where risks may appear long before they turn into failures. We put together some guidance on how to read and use these reports: https://lnkd.in/dHeBAuJX #qualityassurance #qualitymanagement #iso13485 #medical #medicaldevices #medtech

Italy isn’t a market built on volume. It’s built on complexity, precision, and trust. Across regions like Lombardy, Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna, and Tuscany, networks of small and medium manufacturers deliver everything from automotive parts and technical textiles to medical devices and industrial machinery. For buyers, the real value isn’t in chasing the lowest cost. It’s in finding suppliers who can adapt to technical drawings, hold tight tolerances, ensure regulatory compliance, and remain flexible in production. That’s where supplier evaluations, audits, and pre-shipment inspections play a key role. They help businesses cut through the complexity and build reliable partnerships in one of Europe’s most specialized manufacturing landscapes.

In health & safety, the biggest risks are often the quiet ones. A loose cable near water. An emergency exit that opens the wrong way. PPE worn because it’s “standard,” but never checked for the actual hazard. Within the SA8000 framework, safety isn’t a single checklist item—it’s woven into every part of the audit. Detection means more than reviewing documents or ticking boxes. It’s about seeing what’s not said, noticing what doesn’t look quite right, and asking the right questions. From worker interviews to on-site observations, SA8000 pushes for a system-level view of safety.
